EVANGELINA
HOYT AXTON
And I [Em] dream in the [D] morning she brings me [G] water
And I dream in [A] evening she brings me [D] wine
Just a poor mans [G] daughter [C]
From Puerto [G] Penasco
Evange [D] lina in old [G] Mexico
There's a [Em] great hot [D] desert, south of Mexi [G] cali
And if you dont have [A] water boy you better not [D] go
Tequila wont [G] get you [C]
Across that [G] desert
To Evange [D] lina in old [G] Mexico.
And the [Bm] fire I feel for the [F] woman I love
Is [C] driving me in [G] sane
Knowing she's [D] waiting
And [C] I can't get [G] there
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/h/hoyt_axton/evangelina_crd_ver_2.html ]
And [Bm] God only knows that Ive [F] racked my brain
To [C] try to find a [G] way
To reach that [D] woman in old Mexi [G] co

And I [Em] met a kind [D] man he guarded the [G] border
He said You don't need [A] papers Ill let you [D] go
I can tell that you [G] love her [C]
By the look in your [G] eyes now
She's the rose of the [D] desert
In old Mexi [G] co
And the [Bm] fire I feel for the [F] woman I love
Is [C] driving me in [G] sane
Knowing shes [D] waiting
And [C] I can't get [G] there
And [Bm] God only knows that Ive [F] racked my brain
To [C] try to find a [G] way
To reach that [D] woman in old Mexi [G] co
And I [Em] dream in the [D] morning she brings me [G] water
And I dream in [A] evening she brings me [D] wine
Just a poor mans [G] daughter [C]
From Puerto [G] Penasco

South of the [D] border in old Mexi [G] co
Evange [D] lina I miss you [C] so [G]
